    oh babes i had every thing crossed for you, what tests are you using?? your not out till af shows so il still keep my fingers crossed for you xx

  • Options

    Def not out yet Janice... even the early predictor tests can be unreliable this far in advance of your due AF. 

    keep us posted.

    I just used an internet early detection test on Saturday and just used a normal first response one on Sunday.. not the early detection one..I know my AF isn't due til Sunday but I ovulated early at 9 days (well had a very strong positive ovulation test result)  so in theory I'm 15 DPO today so even though I'm not technically due until Sunday i thought 14 DPO was a good time to test. Too worried to test again now so will see if she comes on Sunday if not will POAS again image xx

    with my pregnancy I used first response early detection when i was a day late for my period & still got a negative result but a few days later got positive with a normal test.... fingers crossed for you for sunday... If not... We will be in the ttc boat together next month so can keep each other company! Fingers crossed you wont need that though! image

    Bloody hell I'm all over the place. .. knew I wouldn't be able to resist. . Did another internet cheapy and got another faint line this morning.. darker than 2 days ago (don't have to squint as much to see it) also just looked at my PT tracker and I'm actually due my AF Saturday. . So I have one FR left so I'm defo going to hold out until Saturday/Sunday to do that one.. I just feel once that comes back positive I can sort of have confirmation I'm defo pregnant. . Eeeek excited and scared all at the same time. Xxx

    FFS (sorry for swearing) I'm all over the place now Sarah and have no-one else to speak too apart from you guys on here, as I'm at work at the moment and no-one knows I'm even trying, I have literally just come back from the toilet and I'm bleeding image I still feel very nauseous though and I didn't even have AF cramps so really wasn't expecting to see blood, I'm 4 days early too image god knows what my bloody body is doing. I have 2 boys aged 13 years (prescribed clomid for him) and 6 years (totally out of blue pregnancy) didn't realise how stressful it can be when your TTC..... xxx

    Hey! Good to hear from you Janice! image. Well... My AF arrived today... A day early... i was sad about it to begin with as every AF since the m/c just seems like a painful reminder that im not pregnant anymore... But then i tried to shake that off & will be thinking positively about this month for trying! image. Doesnt the 2ww DRAG though!! Lol... I know what people mean now when they say how tough it is... & constantly analysing every. 'Symptom' you might be having! 

    glad you're doing ok! When are you thinking you might ovulate this month?

    i brought a pack of the cb digital ov tests so will use them this month.

    good luck to us both! image

    Hey... yes couldn't agree more about

    he 2WW.. But glad your upbeat out this month. . I'm not sure when I will ovulate imon day 9 since my period the same time I ovulated last cycle but haven't don't OV test just going with it image Been doing alot of getting down to buisness and going to keep doing that til my AF arrives. Not even going to do a test until I'm a day late. .

    Even after just a couple of months oftrying an one month of tracking ovulation I have realised how stressful it is to do that so just going to go with the flow. . Good luck to you and will check in with you soon. Take care speak soon. Xx

    Hi Janice, sorry to highjack your thread. Just noticed you mentioned how you'd ovulated early last month and were still working out your dates from your original AF due date. I'm not an expert but from my research once you've ovulated you enter the luteal phase which remains the same each month (usually 13/14 days). it is only the follicular phase (pre-ovulation) that is variable each month. So in theory once you ovulate, AF will arrive 13/14 days later even if your ovulation was early. Hope this makes sense, As it means AF didn't arrive early for you last month. Sorry if you already know this and I'm speaking out of turn but I didn't want it to effect any future calculation if you're charting. Plus I know how frustrating it all is without thinking your body is playing tricks. Good luck for this month image

    Hi faithryan, no I don't mind at all image yes I understand what your saying. . However my AF did arrive early last month it was 4 days early which would tie in with when I ovulated on day 9 as when my AF arrived it was 14DPO.. This month im not using OV tests or wondering what every niggle is image I'm just going to go with the flow and if nothing happens I may start tracking again. . What's your story (if you are trying) I really enjoy reading about other people's experience's?

    Take care and speak soon. Xxx

    Sorry I think I confused myself.... I have just re-read your comment. .. and no I know what you mean I didn't get my AF early as such it was just I was 4 days early from when I thought I was due, but technically I wasnt as I did come on 14 days after ovulation. . image haha flipping heck its all so mind boggling image xxx
